The Commercial Bay Happy Hours We’re Heading To
There is a useful little window between work and dinner, and Commercial Bay has it covered. Frozen margaritas by the water, wine in the Cave, or a cocktail with snacks on the table. We’ve put the details all in one place: where to go, what’s on offer and when to get there.
Advieh
Happy Hour: $14 cocktails, $10 beers, $12 house wine, bubbles and spirits
When: Daily, 3pm–7pm
Advieh runs Happy Hour every day from 3–7pm, with $14 cocktails, $10 beers and $12 house wine, bubbles and spirits. It also happens to sit neatly alongside the snacks menu: seasonal hummus with warm Turkish pide, halloumi with mānuka honey and pomegranate, and harissa fries for the table.
Kemuri Hi-Fi
Happy Hour: Whisky and champagne of the month specials
When: Daily, 4pm–6pm
Kemuri Hi-Fi’s Member Happy Hour runs daily from 4–6pm, with whisky and champagne of the month specials alongside Asahi and selected drinks. Between the vinyl, the warm lighting and the listening-bar setting, it’s a strong choice when you want the first stop of the evening to feel considered.
Dos Donkeys
Happy Hour: $10 frozen margaritas, $10 wines and $8 Coronas
When: Daily, 4–6pm
Dos Donkeys brings Happy Hour to One Queen Dining from 4–6pm daily, with $10 frozen margaritas, $10 wines and $8 Coronas. Order something cold, add tacos, corn ribs or something salty for the table, and let the harbour view or fairy lights do the rest.
Public
Happy Hour: $8.50 house beer and wine, plus a $15 Cocktail of the Month
When: Monday to Friday, 12–2pm, and daily, 4–7pm
Public runs two Happy Hour windows, covering both the midday meeting and the early evening catch-up. From 12–2pm Monday to Friday, and daily from 4–7pm, you’ll find $8.50 house beer and wine alongside a rotating $15 Cocktail of the Month.
Kome
Happy Hour: $10 Asahi on tap
When: Daily, 5:30–7pm
Kome keeps Happy Hour simple with $10 Asahi on tap from 5:30–7pm daily. Clean, cold and easy to pair with dinner, it’s a straightforward option for a quick catch-up or a low-key start to the evening.
Queens Wineshop
Happy Hour: Free corkage in the Cave
When: Daily, 11am–9pm
Queens Wineshop’s Cave brings an intimate pace to the middle of the city. With free corkage daily from 11am–9pm, rotating feature pours, good music and a room lined with bottles, it’s a good option for choosing something from the shelves and staying for a glass.
